Statement

Self improvement or advancement is crucial to art, as in life, and most important is that it touches the heart.

We artists find forms congenial to our inner energies and psychic life;  this energy transfers to the art.

Drawing and painting people, places and things has always been a major part of my life.  This creative process is a direct response to the observed  as well as an expression of poetic vision(which allows interpretation or abstraction of  things seen)

Working in a series is most effective as it focuses me on certain imagery or a  concept or medium until I’ve explored them in depth.  I may then work on a different  idea  and then return  to a series  to build on the previous work.
